<p>I will never forget Bofus and Tirion sneaking into the main dragonspawn camp, stealing the plans, and then lighting the wyrmlord's tent on fire. And, Thordak hanging from a rope and trying to knock down the bridge while being attacked by a dragon was pretty fun as well.</p>It has been a blast, especially when the bad guys missed their saving throws against my fireballs.

<p>WOW is right! I cannot believe I find myself getting emotional about the closure of a campaign. However, five years of posting and creating great moments has definitely been a huge part of my life. This has definitely been a trip! I hold you personally responsible for converting me to Pathfinder! It didn't hurt that they created a kick ass game! I think they implemented lots of the ideas we came up with back in college. Where did the time go?</p>
<p>Starting up with Pathfinder PBP back in 2011 has definitely opened doors that I did not anticipate. As for becoming a VC, I don't know how that happened. Now I get to play Pathfinder to my heart's content.</p>
<p>So, we are not quite finished yet. Let's definitely tie up the loose ends. There are many characters in the Elsir Vale that we have fleshed out and many threads that may remain open. So please feel free to role play our conclusion out. As with any sandbox setting, please let me know where you go first.</p>Bofus,

<p>Many thanks to DMHW, my Partner in Crime in All Things DND back in college (man, over 20 years ago?!?!). Watching you go from Pathfinder noob to Venture Capt has been a TRIP!! You never do anything half-assed, do ya?</p>

</blockquote><p>Indeed you did triumph! The module, the Red Hand of Doom, was written so that I could have made opportunities to extend the campaign, such as havng Tiamat escape and ravage a few more towns. But honestly, you killed Tiamat fair and square and it made for a perfect conclusion to a long adventure. I suppose Tiamat herself would be pretty mad that those "meddling kids" ruined her grand schemes, but I don't think I will be planning a sequel anytime soon.
<p>Thanks for being such a great part of it, Shifty. My only regret is that I did not ask you to join us back when I was just starting it. Red was an awesome character and was fun to have with the company. I always appreciate how consistent you've been over the years!</p>Shifty wrote:So wait... we DID win!??!?

It was fun playing with Mantooth, Thordak, Mantooth and Zyren, as well as Tomkin, Mirrin, Red and the several others in between. Being able to team with Bofus over these nearly 5 years was great. And, most importantly, it has been an honor to have played with DMHW. Before he dragged me into Pathfinder, I had not played since AD&D. Since then I have been in numerous games, with many of you, and also in several conventions, something I had never before done.</p>DMHW - I have also had a blast.

<p>I want to thank you for all of your participation and for seeing this adventure through to the end. We started this campaign on March 11, 2011 and over 11 thousand posts later we have reached its conclusion. Congratulations to Bofus who was here from the beginning and to Tirion who came along shortly afterwards! The three college kids who started this campaign with us were my former students in high school and have gone on to graduate from university in the years since this began. To all of you, I appreciate your dedication to role playing and your perseverance and patience. I also thank you for making my first attempt at online GMing such a great experience.</p>
<p>In the week to come, I am happy to role play out the final closure back in Brindol and the celebrations that will occur. You would all gain an experience level.</p>
<p>Truly this is a campaign I had always wanted to run and I am honored to have done it with such an awesome company! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!</p>Hurray Everyone!

<p>I have been seeing a chiropractor every few days. He is really pleased with my progress and so am I. It hurts a little bit when I twist and such, but it is so much better than last week. Life is slowly returning to normal. I can do most tasks around the house, but I have not gotten back to exercising. I will probably start with a snowshoe this weekend and then move up to skiing soon.</p>Thanks for asking, Bofus.
